The Fourth Part 2

……….After going to an afternoon movie, The Green Latern (um, don’t hate me but I was bored stiff during this movie, which is crazy because I amEASILY ENTERTAINED) we went home and got Charlie to celebrate our Nation in the best way possible…….with Yogurtland.

This is how Charlie likes to ride in the car…..watch that paw mister….I am a married woman.

In the car we were all stating what flavor we were going to get that day and when we turned the corner the parking lot was empty which is absolutely unheard of at a place that serves the best fro-yo around.

It was closed. Even Charlie was mad. I haven’t seen my MIL cry since tears of happiness (I think) on me and Bill’s wedding day.

So, we went to the next best place and it was pretty delicious. How dare Yogurtland be closed for the holiday.

After the sugar-induced coma that occured (which occur’s every holiday of my life) I got to work on these babies to share with our fellow firework watcheroos….if you are good blog best friends I will share the recipe with you later for my favorite snickerdoodle blondies.

My FIL made an AMAZING CURRY that is a family recipe (I added the recipe to my RECIPE’S TAB) Mine looks like soup because I love adding the broth part but there is rice down there somewhere.

I am not going to show you pictures of fireworks because I think you know what they look like but I will show you a picture of where we hiked up to (cell phone tower) to watch the fireworks. We saw 6 different shows from where we were sitting and it was awesome. I make Billy sit on my lap, it is normal I promise.

Their was an awesome Fourth of July robot dance perfromed by me with those glow sticks……I might have to reinact it for you.

Do you like Curry?!?! Is there a restaurant or recipe that has your favorite curry? Spicy or mild?

What was the BEST thing you ate yesterday?

-Homemade CURRY!!!

Random question….. After you wear your clothes where do you put them?

A- Away where they go, hung up or folded.

B- Dirty laundry basket.

C- The floor/bed/chair or any other piece of furniture

D- The closet floor

E- Not Applicable because you wear the same clothes the next day.

Currently C……as part of my trying to be more like an adult I am going to work on putting them away this week. E also occurs quite frequently but I can’t figure out if that is a good thing or a bad thing.

My answer to the above question is both E – cuz sometimes I wear the same clothes the next day, and also C: I have a stool in my Bedroom where I put my already worn clothes, since I don’t think they are ready for the laundry yet – AND I might just wanna wear ’em again!

I LOVE curry! The best thing I ate yesterday was a tilapia sandwich when we went out to eat with my parents. We ended up trying like three restaurants before we found one that was actually open. So you were not alone!

I am a clothes-piler. Pile #1 is on the floor, made of clothes that are too dirty to wear. Pile #2 is on a surface, usually the half of my bed I don’t sleep on, made of clothes I plan to wear again. I rocked the same t-shirt for three days this week. I lounge and workout in different sets of clothing, so it’s OK…?

When do ticket sale begin for the reinactment of the 4th of July robot dance? I’m there!!!

Where my clothes go depend on the the item and its position in the days of stank! Ya know if I have wore it 5 times it just walks itself into the laundry room but if not it may be hung up, folded or even thrown on the floor for later use ;-)

I had the best greaseless deep fried turkey with jalapeno butter injector!!! It was da bomb!

Love that you have a water bottle in your purse!!! Looks like a fun weekend!! I usually put my clothes in the laundry basket, dresser or closet but I’d say that sometimes they end up on the floor. Depends on my mood!!!

mmmmmm I love curry! There isn’t a restaurant that serves my fave curry but I love to make stir fry with curry sauce.

My clothes generally go on the floor, along with my clean laundry which I keep meaning to put away. It’s been 3 weeks. At least I know where my clean clothes are: on the floor…2 inches away from the dirty ones ;-)

Usually C but I am trying to get more on board with A. The more time off I have this summer, the lazier I become. I’m a teacher, I don’t start summer school until Friday, my house should be the cleanest it’s ever been….hmmm….quite the opposite going on here. I had a similar situation last week where I arrived after craving my favorite yogurt place and it was CLOSED! Unacceptable – that was last Saturday and my craving has still not been satisfied, at that place or any other froyo place! Yesterday was some seriously delicious food but I think my cookies and cream brownies were the best.

I love blondies! Yours look fab!
Best thing I ate yesterday was homemade strawberry ice cream.
As I am writing this, I’m looking at my pile of clothes (from yesterday and maybe two days ago?) on the floor by my dresser. :D

We’ve only been living in this house a month, so I am currently still in the “put your clothes where the belong” (after a day or so of sitting on the dryer after being folded…) stage. We’ll see how long that lasts!

Also, I need you to share the snickerdoodle blondie recipe with us so I can have those in my life immediately. Yum.

hm… B. or C. !! i am weird with re-wearing clothes… i always feel like i haaave to wash everything even if i wore it for 2.5 seconds to the point where it’s probably wasteful! but then i absolutely hate folding/putting away clothes so the washed ones usually end up piled on a chair/the bed.

I LOVE curry! It is the perfect blend of pretty much everything. I put my clothes away, if they’re dirty they go in the hamper. My husband leaves his on the floor at the end of the bed and will wear them for like 3 days in a row until I finally put them in the hamper before he goes for a fourth wear. Its pretty out of control.

At least you got a suitable fro-yo replacement! I love curry, but I hate spicy food so I make it really mild and most people have to add extra spices to it later.
I put my clothes on the floor every night. Then the next morning I feel guilty and put them away or in the hamper.

Awww…I love this post so much – your posts always make me smile and giggle :-) That photo of Charlie in the car and your subsequent comment was just class, lol! :-D Ditto for the mother in law’s tears. Hehehe! Clothes wise? E (it’s okay if they smell nice still, lol!) and B. I saw the preview for the Green Lantern and it did look cringe-worthy…even Ryan Reynolds was not enough to convince me to watch that film :-P I’m glad you affirmed my choice for me, lol! Take care, honey, happy working out, eating and family time!!!! <3 yx

Golden Spoon is my favorite place in the ENTIRE WORLD. I am so jealous you got to go there yesterday!!! When I first moved to Southern Cali I ate Golden Spoon for dinner 3times a week just because it made me happy! Do you think you send some to Asia for me??
Glad you had a good fourth :) The best thing I ate was chocolate chips and sour patch kids – ironically while watching The Green Lantern.
I put my clothes in the laundry but now my boyfriend told me my workout clothes smell so I have to hang them to dry first lol!

I put shirts in the dirty clothes most of the time – but sometimes i only wear it for a quick trip out – so then it goes on the floor until I want to wear it again . Shorts and pants often go on the floor because I believe they should be worn again until they either get a stain, start to smell or I do laundry.

My other problem is I do laundry and then dig through the baskets for a week before I decide to fold the stuff and put it away.

I have been this way since High School… I see no hope for the future. Shoot.

Love the random question! My clothes do either B or C – stuff I have worn for the whole day or multiple times goes in the dirty laundry, but if it was worn for less than five hours (roughly), it finds a home hanging on the towel rack in the bathroom or the foot rest to a chair in the closet.

1. I LURVCURRY! So much so it’s one word. All kinds.
2. Best thing WILL be my lunch, stuff greek pita.
3. All of the above, depending on my mood and level of exhaustion. And yeah, sometimes I will flip dirtay scrubs and wear them inside out so the last option is also applicable.

We almost went by Yogurtland last night, but were too tired. Good thing we didn’t since we would have just been disappointed like you guys were! Don’t they know they need to be serving yogurt to the masses on July 4th!!

There is a thai place near by that has a great curry dish. I need to drag my bf there for lunch soon, he has never been..

Best thing I ate yesterday was bits of fruit while I was making fruit salad. I swear I eat more than ends up in the bowl..

I’m usually pretty OCD about putting my stuff away (either hang/fold, or in laundry baskets), but that just because my dog really likes to chew up my socks/underwear/sports bras/gym clothes if I leave them on the ground. He was really bad about it when he was a puppy (my laundry baskets now reside on top of my dresser), and the habit is so ingrained in me now that I am still good about it even though he’s almost 3 and probably wouldn’t be so bad now..

I love that pic of the dog!
Hah I am a clothes disaster. I spend 45 minutes every weekend picking up everything I threw on the floor in random places during the week. If you get better at this, teach me how too!!!

I was mad that CBW (a wraps/bowls/salads place) was closed yesterday! BOOO! We also ended up at Golden Spoon. I love that place! The yogurt is really good!

My fave food yesterday was an avocado turkey burger! Post 15k race my hubs got his grill on and I swear it tasted better than any turkey burger I have ever had. Maybe the heat exhaustion helped a little?! LOL!

I hate putting laundry away so I do it ASAP. The longer I wait the worse it is!

have you ever had Japanese curry?! it’s got a lot of the same spices as indian curry but it has some sweeter things like apples in it, along with potatoes, broccoli, carrots, eggplant and the list could go on… :)

And I’m not surprised Yogurtland was closed…because in my opinion, Golden Spoon has always been my favorite. :) Was here since I was a little kid in SoCal and then Yogurtland came and stole it’s thunder!

I just have to say you make the most hilarious pictures. I always have to laugh out loud. But the answer to the question; Definitely C! I usually throw my clothes on my chair and tidy it up later. That Fro-yo looks yum!

I ate deviled egg potato salad yesterday and it was AMAZING because I love deviled eggs AND I love potato salad. Like Hannah Montana, it was the best of both worlds. And yes, I am embarrassed that I just wrote that. You’re welcome.

I’m definitely a clothes-go-wherever-they-land kind of person. Working on that!

Also, PLEASE share that blondie recipe! I drooled all over myself just looking at them!

Do you like Curry?!?! Is there a restaurant or recipe that has your favorite curry? Spicy or mild?

–Definitely like curry. My favorite place to get curry also happens to be my favorite restaurant, which serves Vietnamese and Cambodian food. I love their shrimp curry and they have spring rolls to die for!

What was the BEST thing you ate yesterday?

–Leftovers. But not any leftovers – leftover spaghetti and meatballs made by my mom. Unfortunately the leftovers didn’t include any sausage, which is my favorite part of the meal. Fortunately there was enough sauce left for me to take home and freeze for the future!

Random question….. After you wear your clothes where do you put them?

–Laundry basket or bathroom floor. Depends how lazy I am. I don’t wear things more than once, because I know I could lose track of how often I wore them before washing.

I have to put my clothes away immediately because I cannot stand the clutter. I am a bit of a perfectionist! I love having everything in its place and my clean clothes’ place is in the drawers or hung up!

Runs with ACD

I am sorry to admit that my answer is C. I would LOVE to be more organized and wash my clothes and then fold and put away like normal people but I just can’t do it. My fiance starts to complain when I have piles the size of people and the dogs are gonna get eaten by them. I’m super excited that you love curry too because it is our FAVORITE. We have a Thai place in town that makes the best yellow curry with pineapple and tofu. It’s amazing. I try to replicate it at home but it is a sad substitute. Hope yours was amazing!!
